LMP91000 New Chemical Sensor Modelling

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: LMP91000

Hello, I intend to use LMP91000 with a standard electrochemical cell with three electrodes with graphite working electrode, they may be used in most of analytical applications. Every serygraphed sensor is made by a 3 mm diameter circular graphite electrode and a pseudo-reference silver electrode and a graphite counter-electrode electrode.

I wonder how to obtain the electrical features to create a "New" Sensor in Webench.

Sensitivity (na/ppm) = 1      ; It's an amperometric application, I need to measure currents in the range 0 nA - 1000 nA

Full Range Scale (ppm) = 1000

Zero level (nA) = ?

Bias Voltage = 200 mV

Rload = ?

Capacitance = ?

Resistance = ?

The manufacturer EcoBioservices (http://www.ebsr.it/GSensor_eng.html), seems not to have these values...

Thank you !!!

Alejandro

  • Hi Alejandro,

    there is the same problem for gas sensors (not all manufactures show those data).

    Anyway Capacitance and Resistance are used just to evaluate the performances of the system (sensor + LMP91000). If you do not put them in the GUI, the GUI is still able to configure the LMP91000.

    Regaridng the Zerlo Level (consider the sensor ideal) put it equal to 0nA.

  • Hi Domenico !

    Thank you for your response.

    What about the Rload valued ?

    Thanks again,

    Alejandro

  • Hi Alejandro,

    the Rload of a potentiostat circuit has  a double feature:

    - set the BW of the system (with the outout cap of the sensor) & reduce the noise BW (as the Rload increases).

    Also in this case you can try which value gives the best results in terms of Noise/Settling time.

    In the GUI the Rload impacts on the BW and Noise performances calculation,

    regards,

    Domenico.
